Adoption
Adoption, an act by which a person adopts as his own the child of another. Until recently there was no law of adoption in this country though it exists in other countries, as France and Germany, where the civil law (as to which, see Sand. Just.) prevails to any great extent. In 1889 and 1890, Lord Meath introduced Bills in the House of Lords to legalize adoption.By the (English) Adoption of Children Act, 1926 (16 & 17 Geo. 5, c. 29), after the 31st December, 1925, the Court (usually in the Chancery Division) may authorize the adoption of an infant who is under twenty-one years of age, a British subject, and resident in England and Wales, by an applicant who is more than twenty-five years of age, and also twenty-one years older than the infant, unless closely related, and a British subject, resident and domiciled in England or Wales, but a single adopter, only, will be authorized unless two spouses jointly apply. A male may not adopt a female infant unless the court finds special reason...
Proctor
Proctor [fr. procurator, Lat.], a manager of another person's affairs; also a university official of Oxford or Cambridge having disciplinary powers over members of the university.Proctors in the Ecclesiastical and Admiralty Courts formerly discharged duties similar to those of solicitors and attorneys in other courts, as and being a separate body of practitioners. The title still survives, but the separation no longer exists. Owing to the abolition of the jurisdiction of the Ecclesiastical Courts in causes matrimonial and testamentary, the (English) Court of Probate Act, 1857 (2 & 21 Vict. c. 77), ss. 43, 105, 106, and c. 85, s. 69, awarded compensation to the proctors, and admitted them to practise, not only in the Probate and Divorce Courts, but also in the Courts of Equity and Common Law. The Solicitors Act, 1877, s. 17, allows solicitors to practise as proctors; the Jud. Act, 1925, s. 256 (1), replacing Jud. Act, 1873 (s. 87), gives them the title of 'Solicitors of the Supreme Cour...
County Courts
County Courts. The old County Court was a tribunal inident to the jurisdiction of a sheriff, but was not a Court of Record. Proceedings were removable into a superior court by recordari facias loquelam, or writ of false judgment. Outlawries ofabsconding offenders were here proclaimed.Far more important inferior tribunals have now been established throughout England. They were first established in 1846 by 9 & 10 Vict. c. 95, 'the Act for the more easy recovery of Small Debts and Demands in England,' repealed and re-enacted with fourteen amending Acts by the consolidating and amending (English) County Courts Act, 1888 (51 & 52 Vict. c. 43), an Act very materially but very shortly amended by the (English) County Courts Act, 1903 (3 Dew. 7, c. 42), which came into operation on the 1st January, 1905, and raised the common law jurisdiction from 50l. (to which amount it had been raised by an Act of 1850 from the original 20l. under the Act of 1846) to 100l. The number of jurors was also raise...
Publication
Publication, divulgation; proclamation; also 'the communication of defamatory words to some person or persons other than the person defamed' (Odgers on Libel).The publication of fair reports of legal proceedings in Court (other than ex parte proceedings) is a Common Law right exempt from proceedings for libel.As to the publication of an apology for libel in a newspaper, see LIBEL.Is essential in an action of defamation that the publication be to a third person, though the law is otherwise in Scotland. Thus, there can be no publication as between husband and wife, Wennhak v. Morgan, (1888) 20 QBD 635; but publication can be made to either husband or wife respecting the other, Jones v. Williams, (1888) 1 TLR 572. The third party to whom the matter is published may be in the position of a servant or clerk, Edmondson v. Birch & Co., (1907) 1 KB 371, but see Osborn v. Boulter & Son, (1930) 2 KB 226; but must be able to understand the defamatory character of the matter, Sadgrove v. Hole, (19...
Justices
Justices, officers deputed by the Crown to ad-minister justice and do right by way of judgment. The judges of the Supreme Court are called justices, but the word is usually applied to petty magistrates who sit to administer summary justice in minor matters, and who are commonly called justices of the peace. They were first appointed in 1327 by 1 Edw. 3, st. 2, c. 16, and are now appointed by the king's special commission under the Great Seal, the form of which was settled by all the judges in 1590, and continues, with little alteration, to this day. Consult Putnam's Early Treatises on the Practice of the Justices of the Peace in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries. This appoints them all, jointly and severally, to keep the peace in the county named; and any two or more of them to inquire of and determine felonies and other misdemeanours in such county committed, in which number some particular justices, or one of them, are directed to be always included, and no business done without ...
